SkyGo gives an error when Hybrid is running.

No clue why SkyGo would assume Hybrid can capture something (since it can't).
Is this reproducible without needing a Sky account?

Does this happen if Hybrid is one started or only if a Preview is open or something similar?
(atm. I assume this is related to hardware acceleration,..)

Ps.: also check you gpu drivers, to disable special 'Overlay' stuff, this might trigger this behaviour. (Hybrid using the gpu, gpu enabling additional overlay control and potentially capturing capabilities)

Figured this would be near impossible to debug.. Let me tell you exactly what happens..

So I can be watching something on SkyGo and then load Hybrid and nothing happens. I can load a video.. Extract Subtitles, and pretty much do anything, but as soon as I start the encoding I get an error saying:

"For Information
You appear to be running software capable of capturing video.. If you want to watch the show, please ensure that all capture software is disabled and try again".

After the encoding is finished, i can then watch Sky, even though Hybrid is still running.

So I wonder if it has something to do with "ffmeg" or the "h.264 encoder" which is running as a sub-tasks during the encoding, rather than Hybrid itself?
